I’ve seen a lot of, girls and women specifically online, claim they’re “soft-hearted” or “cute and kind” but be extremely racist, anti-even documented immigration, say that other cultures don’t deserve a home, and call trans people “not people”. And more.

    Nobody wants to think of themselves as a bigoted ass-face with the empathy of a black hole.

    So if someone holds views that are harsh, they MUST frame themselves as a good person who tELlS iT LiKE It IS. Otherwise they would be a bad person, and since they can’t be a bad person their views must be good!

      This one right here! It’s easier to convince yourself that bad things are good, than to accept you might be evil.
